Wikipedia Project – Step 2 ED690- Methods of Inquiry Accelerated Hybrid Course Summer 2018

(1)	The topic that I have chosen is School Placement for Migrant Students.

(2)	I will be adding on to the current page “Migrant Education” and would like to add a subheading to the section “Barriers to educational success”. The section I want to add would address current school placement methods for migrant students.

(3)	The current state of the page provides some decent general information, but I do think that there are definitely points that are not addressed in the “Barriers to educational success”. It discusses a lot of the social aspects of what affects migrant students’ education but not a lot in regards to challenges they may face in the school system. I do think that placement methods for migrant students can definitely be a barrier to academic success.

(4)	I think that having more information about what challenges students face in the school system would provide more insight for people to understand why their success in school have been so troubling. Of course the social, cultural, and emotional barriers are important to understand, but that is only a part of what the issues that migrant students face. School placement as they move from one district to another is out of the students’s control and can have a big impact on how they succeed in school.
